INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 12, 2018--
Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) announced today that New York Moves Magazine
(Moves Magazine) has recognized the Cummins Powers Women program in its
2018 Power Women Awards. Mary Chandler, Vice President of Corporate
Responsibility and Chief Executive Officer of the Cummins Foundation,
accepted the award on behalf of Cummins.

“Cummins is very honored to receive this award for our commitment to the
advancement and prosperity of women and girls around the world,” said
Chandler. “Engineering solutions that build prosperous communities has
been part of who we are since our company’s founding. We continue this
legacy of community problem-solving with Cummins Powers Women, our most
ambitious community initiative ever. We hope this work will encourage
other businesses to invest in organizations like Rise Up, CARE and Girls
Inc., and help make exponential change in the lives of women and girls
around the world.”

The Cummins Powers Women program represents the next phase of Cummins’
commitment to women and girls, and large-scale community impact that
powers a more prosperous world. Cummins has invested more than $10
million in a small group of expert global non-profit organizations with
existing, outcome-based programs to accelerate gender equality. Cummins’
investment will support a range of effective programs, including
grassroots teaching and mentoring, financial advancement through
entrepreneurship, leadership training, and strategic guidance to
non-profit leaders.

Moves Magazine, a national consumer lifestyle magazine, covers global
topics showing how women shape the world through advocacy for women’s
rights, social fairness and equal opportunity. Its annual Power Women
Gala celebrates women from all spheres who endorse these aims and make a
difference. The Cummins Powers Women program is being recognized for its
impact in advancing gender equality around the world.

“Gender equality is good for everyone,” said Tom Linebarger, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of Cummins. “Around the world, girls are
less likely to finish high school, more likely to be married as
children, and less likely to have career prospects or receive fair pay
as adults. Gender equity, if achieved, would add $28 trillion to the
global economy. That means more for everyone. Businesses will benefit
from larger talent pools and better financial results, and communities
benefit because women strengthen entire families and ensure generational
educational attainment.”

Cummins Inc., a global power leader, is a corporation of complementary
